UK In Action: The Droid You're Looking For




33 EOD Engineer Regiment using REDFIRE to locate, collect and later dispose of unexploded ordnance in the Falkland Islands. The Falklands Conflict, 2 April to 14 June 1982, followed the invasion of the Falkland Islands by Argentina on 2 April 1982. It was a unique period in the history of Britain and Argentina and, although war was never formally declared, the brief conflict saw nearly 1,000 lives lost on both sides and many more wounded.
